There is any shops that sell baby equipment? Just trying to think of some places that I can take my daughter, to help her get the equipment that she is going to need.

Are you looking for new or second hand? Second hand recommend Freecycle/ebay.

Secondhand also local newspapers

In Aberdeen - Mothercare, Babies R us etc. Supermarkets own brand clothes are very good.
For cloth nappies and slings you are really best online

However babies really need very little.

It will be second hand as I am now at uni and dont have the money to pay a lot, I have to help as she is only 17 and going to be on her own. So I am just trying to get ideas where we can look.

http://www.opfs.org.uk/ great for advice.

NCT sales used to be fantastic in Aberdeen, when my one was little.

http://www.instantneighbour.co.uk/ helped me out when no one else would

where abouts is she going to be based? Lots of support available out there, some of it actually useful. Depending on her strength there are some really good young mums groups out there but many have girls with problems of their own (eg drugs, abusive homes)

before I forget does her midwife know her situation? She can help with funding applications. Mine gave me lots of extra free samples, baby clothes etc.
